Blue Heeler (Australian Cattle Dog): Dog Breed Profile
Hard-working, intelligent, and loyal-that’s a Blue Heeler in a nutshell. Historically, these dogs were bred to work on farms as herding dogs and they still thrive when they have a job to do. Their fierce loyalty makes them even better workers. Even if you don’t work on a farm, you can put them to work. They love figuring out puzzles and retrieving toys.
Beyond working, Blue Heelers love their people tremendously and are sometimes known as “shadow dogs.” They become intensely devoted to their owner and dislike being separated from them. This will ensure proper nutrition for your pup.
